From Ancient Rome to Greece, from Egypt to medieval Europe, these stunning engravings, frescoes, and sculptures transport us to different eras. In the heart of Ancient Rome's bustling forum, a triumphal procession unfolds before our eyes. The grandeur of this scene is brought to life with vivid colors, capturing the essence of Roman glory. Traveling further back in time, we find ourselves standing atop Athens' Acropolis. The majestic Parthenon stands tall against the backdrop of a beautifully colored engraving from 1866. It's as if we can almost hear echoes of ancient philosophers discussing their profound ideas within its walls. Moving forward into the Middle Ages, we witness Lazarus on his deathbed—a poignant moment captured in a 12th-century artwork inspired by the parable of the rich man and Lazarus. This powerful image reminds us that wealth does not guarantee salvation or eternal peace. Venturing into a Benedictine monastery from the 12th century brings us face-to-face with intricate architecture and spiritual symbolism. As we gaze upon capital N8 on its western side, contrasting fates unfold—the poor man finds solace in heaven while the rich man faces retribution for his sins amidst fiery depths. The vibrant festivities celebrating an event in Rome come alive through elaborate fireworks preparations and enchanting decorations. This glimpse into historical celebrations showcases how architecture played a role not only as structures but also as settings for joyous occasions. A captivating fresco depicting Eurybates and Talthybius leading Briseis to Agamemnon transports us deep into Greek mythology—an epic tale unfolding before our very eyes. The skillful brushstrokes bring forth emotions that resonate across centuries. Scenes from St Nicholas' life painted on wood in 1330 reveal the profound belief in miracles and resurrection.
